Gotta do what ya gotta do.  I had an old honda Atc with spray foam in the front tire.  Not tire sealant, SPRAY Foam Insulation.  Just a kid, didn't know better and couldn't afford anything else.

If those credit card bikers on BikersPost are ever forced to live by their wits they'll die in a week.  I rode my Valk from Austin to Flour Bluff (~ 200 miles) with a cracked valve stem duct taped in place.  I lost about 2 psi.
